When you say complete engine harness did you take the PCM connection apart? If not check and make sure it's all the way together

Good news guys and pretty stupid on my part after I put the harness together I started it up and it started to run bad I unplugged the driver side valve cover harness and it did not make a difference so I pulled the valve cover and the harness was unplugged just enough to make it bad connection so I did the $0.25 trick and it's been running good ever since now I feel like an idiot but thanks for all your guy's help

No worries. Glad you fixed it. I've had my share of those moments too. Plus now anyone else with this issue will be able to follow what you did.

Thanks for closing the info-loop on this.

Not everybody does, and it kinda' leaves us hanging.

Don't feel like an idiot, as the simple stuff gets to all of us, sooner or later!

Again, thanks!
